Speaking of "kung pao chicken", of course, we can't help but mention its inventor-Ding kung pao chicken. According to the draft of Qing history, Ding Baozhen was born in Pingyuan (now Zhijin), Guizhou Province. He was a scholar in Xianfeng for three years and served as the governor of Sichuan in Guangxu for two years. It is said that Ding Baozhen is good at cooking. He likes chicken and peanuts, especially spicy food. When he was the governor of Sichuan Province, he created a delicious dish made of diced chicken, red pepper and peanuts. This delicious dish was originally just Ding Jia's "private kitchen", but later it spread more and more widely and became a household name. But not many people know why it was named "Bao Gong".
Kung pao chicken is a nutritious and delicious home-cooked dish, and many people have different preferences for it. Chicken: Chicken has the functions of warming the middle warmer, benefiting qi, replenishing essence and marrow, tonifying deficiency and improving intelligence. "Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing" says that eating chicken often can be mentally healthy; Most doctors in later generations think that eating is smart. Chicken: Chicken meat is delicate, delicious and nutritious, which has the function of nourishing the body. The content of protein in chicken is very high, and its digestibility is high.

Peanut: contains vitamin E and a certain amount of zinc, which can enhance memory, resist aging, delay the decline of brain function and moisturize the skin; Unsaturated fatty acids in peanuts can reduce bile solids, which is helpful to prevent and treat arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Resveratrol, a bioactive substance contained in peanuts, can prevent and treat tumor diseases, and it is also a chemopreventive agent for reducing platelet aggregation and preventing and treating atherosclerotic diseases.

Six years ago, on a cold winter, I went to a school in Weihai to take the entrance examination. After the exam, I hurried into a small restaurant at the school gate, thinking of having a light meal before going home by train. I glanced at the menu, and I can make it in a short time. The dish that satisfies my preference for salty and sweet tastes is kung pao chicken.
Before long, my boss brought me a plate of brightly colored kung pao chicken. To tell the truth, I've eaten a lot of kung pao chicken before, and some shops taste good. If the perfect score is ten, you can give about seven points, which is a very good result, but it is difficult to impress me deeply. But the kung pao chicken I ate that day really surprised my taste buds. Chicken nuggets are white and full, and the number of cucumbers and diced carrots is just right, which will not dominate. The soup poured on them is thick but not greasy, and the sweet, salty and sour taste is just right. No taste is too prominent, but no taste is ignored.
You're welcome to say that I ate a perfect kung pao chicken that day. Later, the test results were not very satisfactory. Most of the memories of that day were thrown into the trash can as an ordinary day that didn't have much impact on my life, but kung pao chicken, who got full marks, survived and has been remembered by me until today. Later, I also went to many places to eat kung pao chicken with different flavors. Some places made it really delicious, but there were always some minor problems: too few chicken pieces, too much salt, and the taste of pepper covered all other flavors, so unfortunately, I only got about 7 or 8 points.
Looking back on that day's experience, sometimes I wonder if that dish of kung pao chicken is really that delicious. Maybe just because I was too tired to travel at that time, I forgot an ordinary kung pao chicken myth. I've always wanted to go back and make sure that kung pao chicken can really get full marks in the exam, but I haven't been to Weihai since I came back from the exam that day, and it's been six years, and that store may have closed down long ago. Since then, I have never eaten kung pao chicken with full marks. Maybe that kind of kung pao chicken can only exist in my memory.
